See image:

I have 3 hard drives:
1) SSD M4 = Win7
2) Samsung F3
3) Samsung F3

I am trying to raid Both samsung drive mod 0, I did that via Asus UEFI bois by switching the SATA mod to raid, then created the volum. After reboot, the SSD failed to load windows, so I switched back to ACHI mod,

In windows I can't create new raid, see the image, /??? how to fix this ?

ok solved the Unknown message for Disk one, right click and inisialise disk.

but still same error message every time i try to raid them ?
 
Did you have either of the F3's in the system when you installed Windows onto the SSD?

If you did then likely some installation files ended up on the F3's so Windows won't load with them removed or converted to a RAID array.
 
all hard drives were in the system, installed Win7 on M4 with SATA mod set to ahci.

Then likely some of your operating system files are now on the F3's so if you create a RAID array with them Windows will no longer boot as it won't be able to access the files.

I think you need to start again by re-installing Windows on the SSD with the F3's disconnected and with the BIOS set to RAID mode ready for the F3's to be re-connected.

Unless someone else has any other ideas?
